LYRICS
Powstan ze slow zapomnianych
od wiekow niewypowiadanych
powstan ze znakow przekletych
z symboli w ciemnosci wyrytych
powstan z kart pradawnch
ze stron ksiag sprzed stuleci
powstan z tego samego plomienia
czarnego jak zawsze
Piaski czasu odliczaja stulecia w milczeniu
tu czas sie zgubil wiele lat temu
a moze dzis...
i nie ma juz zadnej mocy poza moja
Unosze czare ku rogom
i spelniam ofiare w pentagramie...
w mdlym blasku swiec
zasypiam w mocy pieciu ramion
by odnalezc zejscie w sredniowieczne ciemnosci
Powstaje z oka tajemnicy
powstaje z kwintesencji madrosci
powstaje w swit diabelski
trzeciego sztormu z pieciu
moj sen odnajduje zejscie
w sredniowieczne ciemnosci
Lato trzecim ze sztormow jest
i dla was ostatnim z pieciu
Symbole pozostana nieodczytane...

Arise from the words forgotten
For ages unspoken
Arise from the ill omens
From the symbols in darkness engraved
Arise from the primeval (wisdom)
From the tomes and pages of before the centuries
Arise from your flame
Unholy as usual
The sands of time countdown the ages in silence
Here -- the time had been lost
And what if... this is the day...
And now -- there is no other force... but only mine
I rise the goblet to the horns
And fulfill a sacrifice in the pentagram
In the candles' dim glare
I drift off in the power of five arms
To find a descent into Medieval Darkness
I come into existence by the eye of enigma
I come into existence by the quintessence of wisdom
I come into existence in an infernal sunrise
Of the third storm from the five
(Journey into the Nothingness)
The Summer is third of the storms
And for (all of) you the last of five
The symbols shall remain
